Enrollment in the 2017 Health Insurance Marketplace

Open Enrollment: Nov. 1, 2016 - Jan. 31, 2017

The Health Insurance Marketplace is a government program where
individuals can purchase private health insurance. It offers numerous
insurance choices for those who have not been able to get insurance
through their work or buy it on their own. Tax credits are available for
those who qualify.

Is the Health Insurance Marketplace for You?

Yes: If you’re uninsured or underinsured
and do not qualify for governmental coverage
through Medicare or Medicaid.

Maybe: If your eligibility for Medicaid
(BadgerCare Plus) has changed; if you’re
currently insured but shopping to compare
coverage and rates; if you’re a veteran.

No: If you’re on Medicare or Medicaid or
insured through your employer you do not need to
do anything during ACA open enrollment.

How to Enroll

• Create an account on healthcare.gov• Enter personal and financial information

Currently Enrolled in a Marketplace Plan?

It’s important for all currently enrolled individuals to review all
available insurance plans for 2017 and update their personal and
financial information on their healthcare.gov
account to ensure they receive the appropriate tax credit. If
individuals currently enrolled do nothing, they will be auto-enrolled
into the same – or similar – plan with the same premium tax credit and
other financial assistance, if applicable, as your 2016 plan.
